WORK OUTS
You work out
on your own body
with armor
of l'amour
only love changes for
the good
of language
here limping on the earth
until we reach like Orion
for our own sign or Sion
on our back benches
speaking in English
and French
like strangers
breaking our heart
on river or marriage beds
with a spell of acting
on the pages,stages
as acting Hamlet or Hal
in understudy outrages
from bourgeois appearances
of forsaking the chances
in taking parts
of the immortal.
